DIRECT ALCOHOL FUEL CELL AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME

摘要

Disclosed is a direct alcohol fuel cell comprising an anode (20) having an anode catalyst layer (2), a cathode (30) having a cathode catalyst layer (3), and a solid polymer electrolyte membrane (1) arranged between the anode (20) and the cathode (30). This direct alcohol fuel cell generates electrical power by supplying alcohol and water to the anode (20), and is characterized in that the cathode catalyst layer (3) contains, as a catalyst, a metal complex and/or a fired product of the metal complex obtained by firing the metal complex.
